For the first team that is. And is it just me or did he used to actually wear no 9? Expand I don't know his stats but remember it well, he was useless as a CF but he was a bairn really and was put up against hardened 2nd Division centre halves so it was really tough for him.

Was he from Meadowell? 🤔 Expand He was from Walker, I saw his debut away to Arsenal on the day of the Hillsborough disaster. Knew his brother as we all went to the same school. Last time I saw D Roche was a couple of years ago briefly in a bar in Wallsend. (Don't know him to speak to). He got attacked in Byker many years ago but think he'd moved on to the lower leagues by then if he was playing regularly at all? He was a good prospect and unlike Howey wouldn't have had the same problem looking after himself against older pro's. Think he played against us in the promotion season for Peterborough up here?

Had a great banner hanging outside..... "Win or lose we'll have some booze" Expand I was once on the Nat King Cole and bumped into a couple of mates walking down the fossway after they'd signed on. Apparently Wor Jackies had some bottled lager on for 50p a bottle. It was a lovely summer's day and we all ended up going to wor Jackies but it turned out the 50p lager was 8% cider. The newly retired boxer John Davison was behind the bar learning the ropes so he told us and had a bit crack on with us. Later on as I staggered up Shields Road with my mates I climbed on top of a bus stop and was smiling and waving to the passengers on the top deck I maybe realised a little too late.......
